"Clucking amazing short break."

10.0

Spending two days in a repurposed rustic train carriage is a fantastic experience. Waking up to see the rustic ceiling and cabin space is very refreshing. Great views of the sunrise and sunset. Also if you feed the chickens they will keep you company all day with two of them becoming our best friends :) Overall a great place for a short break and great value for money.

Coming from a quiet village I was aware of the occasional B road noise but this is subjective of what you are used too.

"Fantastic stay in a lovely converted GWR waggon."

10.0

The lcoation was exceptional. We were at the top end of a field by a restricted byway, so a few dog walkers came along, that's all. Easy walk to the village for the shop. Close to events that we were planning to do. Very comfortable and really well thought out. Enjoyed meeting the horse and the poultry. Quiet and such an amazing view of the stars on a clear night.

It was all great.

"Superb"

9.0

Loved loved loved it, what a fantastic little get-away for 2, full of character and quirkiness. Sufficiently far away from everything, but not so far that it was isolated, with pub/restraunt and shop close by. Most certainly, I will be booking again. Highly appreciated, I would thoughly recommend.

Poor WiFi but that's quite nice at times, just made checking in with family difficult (don't want our adult children killing the teenager - even if they deserve it). Final directions need a little finesse as the lane at the back is quite tight (may be easier through farm). Personally I am not keen on the chickens, but my wife loved them...ended up renamed as Kiev, Paxo etc
